It's horrible when people are only interested in buying labels because it doesn't bring them the happiness they think it will.
To play someone who is who they are because of the happiness and contentedness that they've known in their life is interesting because of sort of how banal it is.
We've got people looking at our seamy side and our sad side a lot of the time because that's easier. It's much more difficult to make a film about happiness with lots of jokes in it.
Everyone needs a certain amount of money. Beyond that we pursue money because we know how to obtain it. We don't necessarily know how to obtain happiness.
My whole thing is to agree to disagree and to have respect because nothing can really be changed and you wouldn't want to ruin their happiness - even if that happiness is ignorance.
Plenty of people miss their share of happiness not because they never found it but because they didn't stop to enjoy it.
Happiness is your own treasure because it lies within you.
No man chooses evil because it is evil he only mistakes it for happiness the good he seeks.
People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost.
Politicians also have no leisure because they are always aiming at something beyond political life itself power and glory or happiness.
I heard a definition once: Happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I'd invented it because it is very true.
Some cause happiness wherever they go others whenever they go.
And that is the reason why this victory is great because different players have made contributions to the win.
They never fail who die in a great cause.
I don't think actors should ever expect to get a role because the disappointment is too great. You've got to think of things as an opportunity. An audition's an opportunity to have an audience.
The great thing about being a print journalist is that you are permitted to duck. Cameramen get killed while the writers are flat on the floor. A war correspondent for the BBC dedicated his memoir to 50 fallen colleagues and I guarantee you they were all taking pictures. I am only alive because I am such a chicken.
I don't get angry very often. I lose my temper rarely. And when I do there's always a legitimate cause. Normally I have a great lightness of being. I take things in a very happy amused way.
Great nations are simply the operating fronts of behind-the-scenes vastly ambitious individuals who had become so effectively powerful because of their ability to remain invisible while operating behind the national scenery.
Great minds are related to the brief span of time during which they live as great buildings are to a little square in which they stand: you cannot see them in all their magnitude because you are standing too close to them.
Mitt - what I speak to Mitt Romney about is jobs. What I speak to Mitt Romney about is China because he's got a great view on China and how they're trying to destroy our country by taking our jobs and making our product and manipulating their currency so that it makes it almost impossible for our companies to compete.
The Super Bowl isn't for kids I had a great time though and it was worth every nickel of it because by doing this lame piece about the game I can put it on my expense account.
I feel good in my own skin because I've accepted the fact that I'm me. That's what's so great about being alive and being on this planet: Everybody's different.
I never wanted to become an actress because I'd read great literature or seen great Shakespeare. It was more just wanting to understand what the people were really like why they said all the strange things they did.
Without a trace of irony I can say I have been blessed with brilliant enemies. I owe them a great debt because they redoubled my energies and drove me in new directions.
